Red Trolley is basically their flagship beer, a pretty standard American Amber with just a hint of earthy hops to give it some interest. This is the only Karl bottle I have right now, but I'll try to get Ryan to send me more Karl Strauss stuff so I can do formal reviews of those as well. Beyond the Pour grade B

To sweeten the pot, he said he'd throw in ten bucks to the Red Cross if we did one, or twenty if we did two. So I shot two. This is the first, a soda made by Sprecher in Wisconsin. They make some pretty "okay" beers, and apparently also some pretty "okay" sodas. I call this a "root beer" a couple of times in the review, but that's a slip of the tongue -- it's just a soda, although it has some root-beer-like characteristics.

Check out my website at www.beyondthepour.com I actually shot this on August 14, the day I got back from vacation, which explains why I'm a bit rusty in the video. This is a new brewery in Birmingham, AL, that doesn't bottle at all yet. I've had this beer a couple of times when I was down south, but haven't bothered to review it until now. A shop called Liquor Express in Huntsville, AL, has draft beer to-go sold in plastic milk jugs, which is the format for this review. Is it a bit hyperbolic to call this beer better than Hopslam?

A weird video to shoot and edit. Maybe I was a bit out of practice? Or maybe amazed by how good this beer is. English Special Bitter is one of my all-time favorite beer styles, but it's basically impossible to find a truly superb example.

It's been a long wait for this one. Founders Canadian Breakfast Stout (CBS) hasn't even been brewed since 2007. Yeah, I know there are some places that have put it on tap in the last four years, but those are all from kegs produced since 2007. It's a beer that has never, ever been bottled. So when they announced that they would be releasing 750mL bottles as part of their backstage series, the entire beer geek world lost their shit. Myself included. I'm psyched to get to try it, so psyched that I put it ahead of other beers in my upload queue and shot and edited a review the night of release, all in a (likely futile) attempt to get it reviewed first on Youtube. Since I can't guarantee I'll be first, I decided to open up a bottle of Founders KBS as a direct comparison to the maple bourbon-barrel version. In short? Both are awesome beers, although CBS gets a tiny bit cloying as I get to the bottom of the 750mL bottle due to the amount of sugar. I wish it was a 12oz-er instead. The sugar makes this version even smoother than the already very-smooth KBS, but it also masks a lot of the roasty subtleties of the original beer. In short, while both are excellent, I think KBS is actually the better beer. Beyond the Pour grade: A+

If I missed your review and you're not mentioned in text in the video, send me an email to daniel.e.harper@gmail.com and I'll see if I can get your beer done at some point. I'm always requests, so even if you didn't email me during the project please feel free to send me a request even now. I'll be going on vacation from August 7-14, so this space will go dark during that period. I'll be uploading the final four videos to get to #250 before I leave, and when I get back I'll finally get around to doing all the beers I got in beer mails during the last couple of months.

www.beyondthepour.com It's been a long time since I've done a Short's beer. It's not that I have anything against Short's. Their beers are, at worst, "decent" and at least worthy of review. But whenever I do the local stuff that no one outside the state has easy access to, I find that my pageviews go way down and I'm pretty much just talking to myself. Plus, Short's releases so many beers that I could pretty much make a channel that was just devoted to their releases if I really dedicated myself to it. So why review this one? Well, first of all it's a session IPA, a sub-style that I tend to like a lot. All the flavor of an IPA with less alcohol, hence the ability to drink more of it? Sign me up. Secondly, it's a wedding anniversary ale commemorating Joe Short's own wedding -- as a man trying to plan a wedding of my own, I found it somewhat apropos. Thirdly -- this bottle was all of three days old when it fell into my lap. And if there's one thing I've learned, it's ALWAYS check out IPAs when they're only a handful of days old. Unfortunately this one didn't quite live up to the potential. Still a solid session beer, but nothing worth going out of the way for. Beyond the Pour grade B
